Global Night Commute

Well I’m getting pumped and primed for the Global Night Commute tomorrow. Although it will be more of a daily commute for Phil and I.

We plan to leave around 10ish tomorrow morning. Hike the 20 miles or so to the DART Ledbetter station. Ride the train 10-15 miles to Park Lane. Then walk the remaining 1.5 miles to Northwest Church of Christ where we’ll meet the rest of the folks coming from across the metroplex. At last count there were over 700 people signed up to join us tomorrow night. Awesome.

I hope to post audio, text and pictures throughout our walk tomorrow, so check in regularly to follow us along the path.
